Stanford Project Mixes Darwin with Hydrogen
Thursday, July 21, 2005
"A research project at Stanford University is trying to determine whether survival of the fittest can help humanity build better cars. Researchers at the university, led by chemical engineering professor James Swartz, have discovered a soil microorganism that absorbs photons and subsequently metabolizes the energy to split water, a chemical reaction that produces hydrogen, Jim Plummer, Stanford's dean of engineering, said during a presentation at the AlwaysOn conference taking place at the university this week."
